I bought The Office S.1 yesterday, and I hadn't even seen one episode yet.I just knew it was going to be awesome, which it is.
Southpark is amazing.
I love any NBA and NHL playoff game.
I am a closet court TV fan.
I am a closet outrageous but believable talk show fan as well.
The Simpsons used to be my favorite show for probably a decade or so, but we all know what happened to that ship over the past decade or so.
Penn and Tellers Bullshit is great.
Intervention is therapeutic.
Trailer Park Boys.
Flight of the Concords.
High stakes poker.
Poker after Dark.

OMG yes how did I forget this one. Can't wait for s2. I just re-watched the first season recently.
The scene where hank's agent guilts him into the 3-way, then their exes walk in right as the squirter goes off in his face. 
Priceless...
Oh, and I'll also second 'rome'. Ridiculously well done. Mark anthony is da man

most of you guys seem to be subscribing mainly to popular and easy to find stuff.
for example: only one or two, if any, of you have heard of Carnivale, yet, had they finished the full five seasons instead of canceling after season two it would easily be the best of all time. that show was like one gigantic pseudo-fantasy novel put into an entire series, and was made almost perfectly in every way. i froth at the mouth just thinking about when im gonna feel like enough time has passed so i can watch it again. BROTHER JUSTIN YESSSSSS
similar goes for Rome, Firefly, and Arrested Development. AD is such a supreme example of how incredibly stupid the large majority of sitcom viewers are and how such money-grubbing, tasteless clowns television executives are.
once, just once, i would like an station to be ruled by somebody who doesn't care about making the most money, and wants to put out the most artistic product instead. if that ever happened it'd be just like HBO except not cancelling half its shows because even many HBO subscribers wouldn't know the best show ever if it was stabbing them with a pike.

I DVR and watch this show every day that it's on.

My wife and I DVR the next two shows and watch them when we can.

Love and marriage,
Love and marriage
Go together
Like a horse and carriage
This I tell you brother
You can't have one without the other
Love and marriage, love and marriage
It's an institute you can't disparage
Ask the local gentry
And they will say it's elementary
Try, try, try to separate them
It's an illusion
Try, try, try, and you will only come
To this conclusion
Love and marriage, love and marriage
oh, and when is entourage next season due?

I just finished watching every episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm and its as funny as any show ive ever seen. Its just as good as my favourite show of all time Seinfeld and anyone that likes Seinfeld should buy(or download) the DVDs immediately and start watching it.
I havent LOL'd this hard at a TV show in a long time.
Its pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good.

I just started watching it recently and am almost through the episodes.
Honestly one of the funniest f'n shows I've seen in a long time. Seriously well done hilariosity.
Superhands is probably like the best character ever.

Watched all 4 seasons of entourage recently, now that's a good show. Ari Gold (jeremy piven) is godly.
And dexter, I got 2 seasons of that lying around on a harddrive somewhere, heard some good stuff about it..

QFT, just in case anyone wasn't aware. HBO pretty much had it locked with Curb and Sopranos as well. Ali G as well. Rescue Me was very good, at least season 1 and 2.
